Chapter 256 Auction Venue

Yu Zhuo knew that Qi Mohan had bad intentions. He restrained his expression and pretended to be uncomfortable, "I don't know him. He has a very bad temper. He went to the hospital for a follow-up check today."

"Re-examination?" Qi Mohan groaned for a few seconds, then sighed, "The Earl has been sleeping for many years, and his health is getting worse. Why didn't you go with him?"

"How can he be as important as His Majesty? I don't have the time to go there." Yu Zhuo waved his hands and frowned, as if he remembered something bad.

"Since you are an old friend of his, would you like to go back with me? Four or five hours have passed, and he should be back from the hospital by now."

Qi Mohan did not refuse, this was his original intention, and he said, "Okay, let's go together."

The two of them left the palace together. The journey back was long, and Qi Mohan asked Yu Zhuo some small questions intentionally or unintentionally, as if he wanted to clarify Yu Zhuo's identity.

Yu Zhuo had nothing to hide. The information in his system database was far richer than what humans in this world had investigated. He could even answer a few of the basic questions that Qi Mohan asked.

It took Yu Zhuo more than an hour to get home. The house was empty, and there were fewer guards outside than before, but their overall distribution had not changed.

Yu Zhuo looked inside and asked, "He hasn't come back yet?"

"No." The guard answered briefly, "The servants who left with the count have not returned yet. They are still being examined in the hospital."

"What's taking so long?" Yu Zhuo felt strange. He took out his cell phone and frowned, "I'll call and ask."

After he finished speaking, his right hand that was holding out the cell phone froze. Yu Zhuo had just married Zhou Yanshu yesterday, so how would he know Zhou Yanshu's contact information?

Although he could use a virus to quickly get the number, this would obviously expose himself.

Yu Zhuo paused and put his phone away. He instructed the guard in front of him, "Have you contacted the attendant? What did he say?"

The guard said respectfully, "We had a conversation ten minutes ago. He just said that the Earl was still investigating and the report was not out yet."

Yu Zhuo turned to look at Qi Mohan standing beside him and said, "Left Envoy, he doesn't know when the inspection will be completed. If you want to wait, it may take another four or five hours."

"It's okay. I have nothing to do today. I can wait." Qi Mohan didn't care about it. He walked into the house and found an empty seat to sit down. "Please, Madam, pour me a cup of tea. Thank you."

Yu Zhuo: “…”

Before, he just suspected that Qi Mohan had ulterior motives, but now he is sure that he has ulterior motives.

Yu Zhuo said nothing more and asked his servant to find the best tea in the house to make tea for Qi Mohan.

Qi Mohan, a business tycoon, probably even has a gold-carved cup for drinking. Yu Zhuo didn't have that much money, so he just symbolically made him a cup of hot tea.

Qi Mohan didn't mind. He waited in the house for nearly half an hour, during which time calls kept coming in. Qi Mohan just glanced at the call and hung up quickly.

Yu Zhuo glanced at him and said, "Left Envoy, are you busy? Your phone is ringing again."

Qi Mohan's eyes were already tired. He glanced at his phone after hearing this, and after hanging up, he smiled helplessly at Yu Zhuo and said, "I have an auction this afternoon, and it's almost time."

Yuzhuo thought that you were finally leaving, so he stood up and said, "Then I won't see you off..."

"Madam, will you come with me?" Qi Mohan looked at Yu Zhuo, "I also want to pick out a few things to give to the Earl as a wedding gift for you."

Yu Zhuo: “…”

"Okay." Yu Zhuo let go of the ceramic cup lid in his hand. He calculated the time the auction would take, packed up his things, and left the house with Qi Mohan.

He still lacks a few things to make medicine. There are many kinds of items at the auction, and Yuzhuo might be able to find a few of what he needs.

It can also delay Qi Mohan for a period of time.

Everything in the mermaid auction venue is closely related to their species. Yu Zhuo had wandered around various worlds before and seen the weird things in various auction venues.

The auction that Qi Mohan brought Yu Zhuo to this time was held underground. Yu Zhuo put on a golden mask at the door. When he walked in, he looked up. The plaque was black and had no words engraved on it. Yu Zhuo knew at a glance that this was not a serious auction.

This is indeed the case.

Yu Zhuo and Qi Mohan arrived at the auction ten minutes late, and the auction had already started.

Yu Zhuo found a place to sit down and saw the person above him was carrying the skull of an unknown creature and walking down. There was a crack on the top of the skull, as if it had been hit by a heavy object before death.

Yu Zhuo frowned: "What is that?"

"The skull of the carp clan is very nutritious when boiled into soup." Qi Mohan crossed his legs and glanced at the heavy object that was lifted down.

Yu Zhuo choked and said, "Is this a human bone?"

"They are the carp tribe. They can be human or fish." Qi Mohan retracted his gaze and said indifferently, "You can think of this as drinking fish soup."

Yu Zhuo: “…”

Yuzhuo looked down and saw that the person who won the carp skull through an auction competition was buyer No. 7. Like Yuzhuo, his entire face was covered by a mask, his hair was purple, and he was hunched over and coughed from time to time.

Seeing that I am in poor health, I privately auctioned carp skulls to nourish my body...

Yu Zhuo looked away and saw the person below carrying up the second item. He couldn't help but frown again.

It was a mermaid's tail that had just been cut off, and it looked extremely beautiful. From the cut to the end of the tail, it was covered with pure gold scales, and under the light it seemed to be coated with a layer of silver-white gold.

"The Chemorosa family's mermaid's holy tail, starting price is five million!"

As soon as the host finished speaking, the densely packed crowd below began to raise their number plates.

"One hundred million!"

"One hundred and fifty million!"

"Three hundred million!"

Qi Mohan seemed to be quite interested in this as well. He held up a sign and announced a number: "Five billion."

There was a moment of silence in the conference hall. Everyone inside looked in the direction of Qi Mohan with suspicion, lowered their heads and whispered to each other.

Qi Mohan had already covered himself up. He sat there motionless, but his attitude was calm. Although he was a mermaid, his tail was not conspicuous, so he was quite interested in the dazzling mermaid tails.

Yu Zhuo looked at the bloody wound on the fish's tail and felt disgusted: "I'm not interested in this. I'm leaving now."

After he finished speaking, he stood up and walked quickly out of the auction venue.

This auction is no different from an underground black market, or even worse than an underground black market. Qi Mohan is at the top of the mermaid tribe, but he did nothing and participated in it. It is simply unbelievable.

Yu Zhuo didn't want to think about the mermaid's tail anymore, so he stopped a car and said, "Take me to the Central Hospital."

He felt bad again and waved his hand to the driver, "No, no, no, I'm not going to the hospital. I'm the Countess, take me back to the Count's residence."
